I still don't see how this is a win. Quoting from the article: "Importantly, the Court also stated that breeding dogs for the following purposes would not constitute breeding dogs for sale: * Breeding for show; * Breeding to keep as pets; or * Breeding to give away without charge." >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> And it is further complicated because in certain locations (towns/townships/municipalities), not only can't you have an in-home business, but in some bylaws, specifically you can't have a kennel. (Not here, but daddy owns a title insurance company so thank God I grew up with a broad knowledge base about this sort of thing and put it to use before buying.) So, I may breed a litter when I want to hold something back for myself. But...pray tell, what am I supposed to do with the other 8 puppies? Obviously I am not going to keep all of them.... I'm not in NJ, but... I can't wrap my head around this one....and I sure wouldn't call it a win except for the inspections going away. What a mess....

Halpern, DVM, Esq. on July 2, 2014 Posted in Municipal ordinance Based on a recent decision by the Appellate Division of the Superior Court of New Jersey in State v. Danielle Weitz, dog breeders should consider whether they need a kennel license, based on their local ordinances. If your municipality incorporates the Stateâs definition of âkennelâ in its ordinances, you may want to either obtain a kennel license or restrict breeding to those purposes the Court described (below) that would not constitute breeding dogs for sale. See State v. Danielle Weitz, Docket No. A-3722-12T4 (N.J. Super. Ct. App. Div.
